Goggins proceeded to issue a prejudical press statement 28th May as if the PSNI had dashed to the rescue as soon as they heard about the sex slaves,

For the record, I regularly urged Poppy/Eaves to distance their org from state actors involved in privacy violations & reality TV policing events.

Complaint – Brothel Raid – Newry and Lisburn Road Belfast.

28th May 2009

Dear Mr. Hutchinson

I would like to lodge a complaint in relation to misconduct by the PSNI.

It is a violation of CEDAW, ICCPR and the Standard Minimum Rules for the Treatment of Prisoners, and the United Nations Minimum Rules for the Administration of Juvenile Justice to exploit prostituted women via photography for public relations etc.

Goggins welcomes success against human traffickers
Thursday 28 May 2009

Security Minister and Chair of the Organised Crime Task Force, Paul Goggins MP, has congratulated those involved in today’s operation which has dismantled a Chinese organised crime gang involved in human trafficking.

The PSNI led Operation Sleek resulted in a number of properties searched and arrests made, with six victims of human trafficking rescued.

Paul Goggins said: “Human trafficking is a vile and wicked crime and I would like to congratulate all those officers involved in the PSNI led multi agency operation today. This has dismantled a Chinese organised crime gang involved in Human Trafficking in Northern Ireland.

“Six victims of human trafficking were rescued today in Northern Ireland and three people have been arrested. This is an encouraging result.”

“The victims will receive care and support to help them recover from their horrific ordeal and I am delighted that the arrangements we made earlier this year with Women’s Aid and the Migrant Helpline are now available for victims of human trafficking.”

Notes to editors

The Council of Europe Convention on Action against Trafficking of Human Beings was ratified by the UK on 17 December 2008 and came into force on 1 April 2009.

The Convention requirements include the provision of safe and secure accommodation and services for victims of human trafficking during a minimum period of recovery and reflection of 30 days. In the UK this period of recovery and reflection will be 45 days.

Under a new package of support for victims of human trafficking announced in March by Paul Goggins, Women’s Aid Federation Northern Ireland will look after adult female victims of sexual trafficking recovered in Northern Ireland. Migrant Helpline will look after adult male victims of sexual trafficking and all victims of labour trafficking recovered in Northern Ireland. Any children recovered will be cared for under the requirements of the Children (NI) Order 1995.

11. All such measures should respect the dignity and privacy of the trafficked person.

A direction from Leeds re: PSNI. Trafficked and prostituted women are being used by NGOs and state agencies (PSNI, UKHTC, SOCA etc.) in the same way as PETA or PLAYBOY develops content. It was suggested we go back to July 2003 and prepare exhibits for the House of Lords re: the PSNI dragging prostituted women out in Derry for the Belfast Telegraph to photograph them. Local residents threatened the prostituted women in the same PSNI orchestrated incident. It was on the front page.

Amnesty International – feedback
AI have shown us a draft of their ’stop the trafficking’ of women campaign and want feedback. It involves images of women representing pieces of meat. Thank you everyone for comments so far

Apologies for not replying to your message regarding my email address – I have only just noticed it. Would you mind removing it? Thanks and best wishes, Julie

“Dear Pro-prostitution people

You must be delighted to have the wild misogynists AND Gregory as your new (ish) friends.”

1. I do not approve of prostitution or lap dancing. Both of these things degrade and exploit men.

But I believe that men and women have the right to choose to do whatever they wish to do sexually speaking.

So, as usual, you got it wrong.

2. As for accusing those who disagree with your views of being misogynists; how truly pathetic you are.

3. Being a lesbian, you know precious little about the sexual relationships that men and women have with each other. Indeed, every active heterosexual man in the country will likely know far more about how women relate to men in the sexual sense than you will ever know.

You will NEVER be a man having a sexual relationship with a woman.

Get over it.

I have always admired your writing and appreciated and been provoked by your ideas. However I feel this article, like that about MPs expenses, is not worthy of you and any reputation you may want to have as a trusted source and commentator.”

Dear Pro-prostitution people

I think that contribution hit the nail on the head.

“The willlingness of women commentators to use their position to only promote the interest of their group of friends has been a terrible dis-serive to the wider community of women working on women’s issues and unlimately harmed their work because this limited and censoring focus on a small group has weakened women’s groups and networks from having a voice and their work recognised.”

The Eaves/Poppy is unquestionably the reverse image of pro-prostitution funding by PM Helen Clark in New Zealand

Eaves/Poppy’s as sole favored recipient is ( in my opinion) also comparable to the MPs expenses phenomena

The truth has to be good enough

By the standards of the parish, quite conservative.

We tried to be helpful. The UUP are in official alliance with the Tory party.

The UKHTC didn’t raid a single lap-dancing club in either P1 or P2, don’t you think that is strange?

Given the Canadian, Irish, Cypriot, Maltese precedents etc. What do you think Fiona MacTaggart was doing there?

I am not pigging at the public purse, I am not cheerleading for the UKHTC.

I have the same message today, as when I was doing publicity for the CATW, exactly the same.

Issues of Lap Dancing and Trafficking Require Vigilance and Action from UK and European Partner
Press Statement from Rev Martin Smyth MP
Rev Martin Smyth MP has today given his reaction to a statement from Dr Janice Raymond, Co-Executive Director of the Coalition Against Trafficking in Women, which she has released in the wake of last week’s raids on lap-dancing clubs in the Republic. The South Belfast MP said:

“I welcome Janice Raymond’s statement. She and the Coalition Against Trafficking in Women have been tracking these issues involving lap-dancing, trafficking, and the exploitation of women internationally and therefore have a good grasp on not only the problems, but also on solutions. Dr Raymond’s suggestions on what can be done through legislation to impact upon this issue and tighten up on loopholes should be given the most serious consideration by government.”

“I particularly endorse Dr Raymond’s assertion that last week’s raids in the Republic also have implications for Northern Ireland, and the whole of the UK as well as the rest of Europe and the globe. While concerns may locally be highlighted by an individual lap-dancing club in a specific vicinity, the issue must be placed in a much wider context.”

“If girls have been brought in illegally for lap-dancing clubs in the Republic, there is no reason to believe that the UK is not similarly affected. Northern Ireland, with a border which is weak in the way of immigration control, is particularly vulnerable. The issue must therefore be tackled through a strong and proactive common approach across countries. Raids in one individual country on one particular day, welcome though they are, are not enough on their own to halt a problem which is driven by networks of organised criminal groups.”

“At its core this is a human rights issue which is about protecting those who have been exploited for the profit of others. I strongly believe that we in the West have a particular responsibility to those from less well off and developed countries, such as eastern Europe, to ensure that we do not stand back and allow those from our more wealthy society to take advantage of them.”

I am not leaving it, Eaves/Poppy are in cahoots with people who are abusing prostituted women.
